China Railway Shanghai Group introduced three new high-speed rail passes designed to meet travelers' diverse travel needs on Aug 26. These passes offer tourists the convenience of "one purchase, three destinations, valid for seven days", providing a flexible and cost-effective way to explore three different cities.

The passes cover popular routes such as Shanghai-Dongtai-Yangzhou, Hangzhou-Qiandao Lake-Yellow Mountain, and Nanjing-Huai'an-Yancheng. Travelers can easily book tickets via the 12306 app or website, or at ticket machines, and use their ID to board any eligible train within the seven-day period.

For example, the Hangzhou-Qiandao Lake-Yellow Mountain pass costs 210 yuan ($29.5), significantly cheaper than buying individual tickets along the same routes.

These passes, with flexible booking and refund options, aim to enhance the travel experience, catering to the growing trend of leisurely tourism in the region.
